Drivetrain Mounts and Upgrades

Sway bars transmit cornering forces from the outside wheels to the inside wheels, helping to keep the vehicle flat during cornering. This, in turn, reduces body roll and improves the driver's cornering confidence. OEM rubber sway bar bushings are designed with comfort in mind, allowing the sway bar to articulate while permitting additional movement, leading to less-than-ideal bar retention and causes unnecessary body roll.

Powerflex polyurethane sway bar bushings are firmer than factory rubber bushings, reducing body roll and keeping sway bars in check. Polyurethane bushings won't slop around like OEM bushings, allowing sway bars to function at their fullest potential.

Poweflex is a leading manufacturer of aftermarket suspension bushings. Using state of the art design and manufacturing, all replacement bushings are engineered to out-perform and out-last the ones that came in the car. Each line of bushings is meticulously tested and then re-tested to ensure perfect fitment and enduring quality through the life of the vehicle. A full lifetime warranty backs every one of their products and demonstrates the level of confidence and commitment Powerflex has to their customers. 

This part fits the following BMWs:
 

Differential bushings are responsible for keeping the differential in solid alignment while dampening drivetrain vibration. While OE rubber bushings are fine when they are new from the factory, aged and worn out rubber bushings create a multitude of issues that can range from annoying to dangerous. As a factory bushing ages, it begins to harden and become brittle. When this happens the bushing will actually shrink and allow for movement at the differential mounting point. At this point, the differential is free to shift under load causing a noticeable clunking noise under acceleration and deceleration and massively increasing the stress on the driveshaft and axles. Manual transmissions suffer the worst from this as it can make shifting difficult since the differential will shift when the clutch is engaged and disengaged.

By replacing these bushings with full polyurethane, the movement is eliminated since the mounting point is supported by a much stiffer material that will not harden or shrink over time. This means less stress on the driveshaft and axles and greater longevity of supporting components. 

Powerflex Black Series bushings are the ultimate in track and race bushings. Featuring 95A durometer polyurethane, Black Series bushings are 25% stiffer than street bushings. Engineered to perform, Powerflex performance polyurethane control arm bushings offer a supreme level of control, while still providing enough comfort for the street, with advanced polyurethane that reduces NVH that often accompanies lesser bushings. Expect improved acceleration response, more direct shifting feel and overall improved drivetrain composure with Powerflex performance polyurethane bushings.

Upgrade your Mini with the PFF5-220 Lower Torque Mount Bracket & Bushing, designed to replace the softer OE mount prone to cracking and excessive engine movement. Ideal for standard or mildly tuned cars, this mount bracket is 300% stiffer than the worn OE mount, offering improved handling and gear shifting precision for fast road use. With CNC machined aluminum construction and various durometer bushing options, it reduces engine movement while enhancing on/off throttle balance. Easy to install with just two bolts, it eliminates the need for pressing out rubber. Expect a slight increase in NVH, particularly at idle.

Benefits:

• 300% stiffer than OE mount
• Reduces engine movement and wheel hop
• Improves handling and gear shifting precision
• Easy installation with two bolts
• Compatible with standard or mildly tuned cars

Drive line slop is often caused by faulty engine and transmission mounts. This can result in knocking noises under heavy acceleration, excessive vibration, and a less responsive feel in power. These Genuine BMW mounts are perfect to eliminate these problems and provide long lasting reliability.

Included in this kit:

• Genuine BMW Engine Mount (x2)
• OEM Lemforder Manual Transmission Mount (x2)

This kit includes Turner Motorsport solid aluminum differential race mounts pre installed in the differential cover for a quick install.
